Top text flickering (jumping to middle)

#51

First reported here:

Loging a ticket for your convenience:

I am using 3.5.2 now on Live and the character names are constantly jumping from above to middle and back.. The name is set to display in the upper position. If I change the setting to middle or lower, it doesn't jump around.

It does it in scenarios, not sure if it does it outside of scenarios.

I have the following text setup:

Name (upper) Level (middle) AP (lower)

all right aligned, all small bold, other text not shown.

Icon is positioned bottom left of square.

    1. Doesnt matter how many pieces of text are showing
    2. Only affects text in the "TopText" position
    3. Text appears to jump down to the Middle position then immediately back up (happens very quickly giving the appearance of flashing)
    4. Doesnt matter which piece of text you assign to the top (HP / AP / Class / Name) all have the same issue
    5. Is not affected by lenght value
    6. Is not affected by font type (tried them all)

    The flash rate would not appear to be constant (so looks like its event fired)

    I checked through the XML and found nothing untoward so my best guess is something is triggering a redraw since this mornings update.

    When I am invited into a group (outside of a scenario) the top text immediately jumps from top to middle and back, then at a sort of regular interval afterwards, the interval does increase and shrink from time to time.

    It happens during a call to SquaredGroup.UpdateGroup()

    e.g. the following reproduces the problem (for me) even when not in a group.

    /script SquaredGroup.UpdateGroup()

    Try grabbing the r185 alpha build off CurseForge: http://war.curseforge.com/projec...

    Let me know if that helps at all?

    Found a workaround. 3.5.3 shouldn't display the issue anymore.
